We’ve made it our mission to build on that. Initiatives such as the Creative Floor Talent Fund make it possible to achieve those goals and change more lives for the better. We’re delighted to have won the fund this year, and to share it with our partners at Ideas Foundation is the icing on the cake.”

It’s an absolute honour to be the recipients of the Talent Fund award, which will allow us to continue our important work in giving access to creative projects and connecting them with inspiring role models. We are delighted to share this with the SCA, who are long term supporters of the Ideas Foundation and have helped many of our students continue the creative journey that they started with IF, by way of scholarships.”
